She knows where she is going to.

 

She knows where she is going to.

Today, I want to share a story about a girl who is doing well in her studies, pursuing two majors simultaneously. Despite her busy schedule, she recognizes the importance of finding the right partner to bring happiness and fulfillment into her life.

I met her at a university activity where she offered to help me navigate the various activities. During our time together, we talked about various aspects of life, including personal relationships. I've noticed a trend among many young women who prioritize their careers over marriage. While it's admirable to focus on building a successful career, it's important to remember that true fulfillment comes from meaningful relationships. Marriage can be a significant part of that.

Many people approach marriage with skepticism, thinking that it's not as good as it used to be. However, I believe that marrying the right person can make a huge difference in someone's life. It's essential to approach it with the right expectations and the understanding that a successful marriage can bring immense joy.

The girl I met has found a balance between her career aspirations and her plans for a family. She met her boyfriend in college and is in love with him. Together, they have plans for the future while working on their careers. It's crucial to recognize that having a fulfilling life goes beyond just having a successful career. While money can make life easier, it doesn't necessarily make us happier.

I want to encourage students to consider the possibility that they may regret not pursuing relationships in the future. While it's important to focus on building a career, it's equally important not to exclude the possibility of marriage from their plans. A balanced approach is key.

I was happy to meet this girl who has a well-thought-out plan for her future, including a balance between her career and personal life. While nothing is guaranteed, having a plan increases our chances of success. I wish her all the best in her endeavors, and I hope she finds happiness in her future with her boyfriend.

It's important to note that postponing marriage for too long may not always be the best decision for a girl. While it's important to focus on one's career and aspirations, it's also important to keep in mind that as one gets older, it may become more difficult to find a suitable partner. Often, when a girl is younger, there are more prospective candidates for marriage, and it can be easier to find someone who will support her in her aspirations. It's a common misconception that marriage means giving up everything else, but that's not the case. In fact, a supportive partner can help a woman achieve her goals and make her life more fulfilling. Ultimately, the decision to get married or not should be based on the individual's desires and goals in life, but it's important to consider all factors, including the potential challenges of finding a partner later in life.

Finally, I want to emphasize that finding the right partner is a significant decision, and it's important not to let go of someone special when you find them. The girl I met is a catch, and I hope her boyfriend recognizes that.

Importance of Paying Attention in English Language Class

 


Importance of Paying Attention in English Language Class

Today, I had a surprise class I had promise to the students do to their bad behavior last class, but many students were absent (I don’t know, maybe they were afraid of what I was going to do). Instead of conducting a regular class, I wrote the answers on the blackboard and provided sound clips so they could study independently since they weren't paying attention during the previous class. Next, I called one student from each group and interviewed them individually about the homework. If students were proficient in English, I wouldn't mind them not paying attention, but since many were struggling, it was apparent that their lack of attention was a problem. They couldn't hold a good conversation with me about their homework, which reflected in their low grades. I admit that I was tough on them.

At the end of the class, I asked them if they preferred continuing with today's approach or going back to the old method. Previously, I would give them maximum points for attempting the homework, but today they received poor grades because of their performance. While it isn't their fault if they don't speak English well, it is their responsibility to pay attention in class. They promised to behave better during the next class, so I agreed to return to the old method.

During the second half of the class, we used music to practice pronunciation and had fun singing together. I hoped that they understood that I wasn't their enemy and that I only wanted what was best for them, which in this case meant learning English well.

Accepting the Good with the Bad: Learning to Appreciate Life's Ups and Downs

 


Accepting the Good with the Bad: Learning to Appreciate Life's Ups and Downs

Life is full of ups and downs. There are times when everything seems to go well, and then there are times when everything seems to go wrong. We often focus on the negative aspects of life and forget to appreciate the good. Accepting the good with the bad is a crucial part of life. It is about accepting the fact that there will be both good and bad things in life, and we need to learn to deal with both.

One of the most common examples of accepting the good with the bad is relationships. Relationships are not always perfect, and there will be times when things get tough. But it is important to remember that there are also good times. Accepting the bad times and working through them with your partner is crucial for a healthy relationship. Recognizing and appreciating the good times can also help to strengthen the bond between partners.

Another example is work. Work can be stressful and challenging at times, but it can also be fulfilling and rewarding. Accepting the fact that there will be difficult days and challenging tasks is important. Learning to deal with them and not letting them overshadow the good aspects of work is crucial for job satisfaction.

Health is another aspect of life where accepting the good with the bad is essential. There will be times when we get sick or injured, and we have to accept that it is part of life. However, it is also important to focus on the good aspects of health, such as maintaining a healthy diet and exercise routine, to prevent illness and stay healthy.

Finally, in life in general, we need to accept that there will be good and bad experiences. It is important to learn from the bad experiences and use them to grow and improve. But we also need to recognize and appreciate the good experiences, as they help us to find joy and happiness in life.

In conclusion, accepting the good with the bad is an essential part of life. It is about recognizing that there will be both good and bad experiences, and learning to deal with both. By focusing on the good aspects of life and learning from the bad, we can find joy and happiness in every moment.
